Ahhh, sunday morning. I'm having another wonderfully lazy day today. Last night was really fun - pearl theo and mike camse round for vegan grub (which they seemed to really enjoy) then Pearl, bless her, made these amazing pears with carmalized sugary swoops around. But it took her ages cause the sugar stuff kept burning and tasting like molasses - ( Read more... )

I know it seems like I'm always saying this - but I haven't written on here in ages. In fact, last time I wrote (besides the flab missing haiku), it was talking about how i had just decided to move to new zealand and how I loved seatoun and had thoughts about a sonic arts course.

What a great day - eastbourne sand dunes is my fave fave project and i could work on it everyday and feel fulfilled. Today we were opretty much just sitting around weeding. Should be boring work - but the weds come out really easily so its wuite satifying, and you can clear a big patch and see the results quite quickly. Plus the locals are really ( Read more... )
